That's what big-nosed twat Paul Moody seems to think in this week's NME* - basically, Hazza's penchant for birds, booze and spliff, combined with his, like, todally edgy donning of Nazi regalia, makes him like 'Liam Gallagher if he'd come of age in Shoreditch in 2004'. I kid you the fuck not, he actually wrote that and meant it as a complement. He also points out that Harry is less dull than Chris Martin. Well, duh. Who else is on Paul Moody's cool list? Crispian Mills? Nick Griffin?

A new nadir for a long-redundant rag that many thought couldn't stoop any lower after their thinly veiled, necrophiliac end-horse-ment of heroin adiction as a lifestyle choice.

*I bought it to get a form place an advert, not becuase I care for pasty-faced, pencil-limbed fuckwits pedalling twee, self-pitying conservative shite.

i nearly bought it in that car-crash-staring kind of way today but i restrained myself. it would only have made me angry, i thought. how right can you be? that is just fucking ridiculous. that story is the work of a desperate mind. fucking idiot. christ.

"All Harry needs to do now is 'do a Daniel Radclifee and come clean that he was the reason the curtains were twitching during the 'London's Burning' Buck House shoot last summer and that yes, he is abandoning his dreams of Sandhurst and signing to Poptones on the advice of his new-found friend Dominic Masters. And rumours that he's currently dating Mairead from Queens of Noize remain unconfirmed"

I feel really sorry for him. He can't live like a normal person and do what normal people do because of his family. I bet loads of people dress up as nazi's every day and they don't have to make a public apology.

Harry isn't cool at all, really the question of anyone being cool is so absurd that it doesn't need to be asked. Though if pushed I'd stick Oscar Wilde on a cool list. The interesting piece in that issue of NME was the stuff on Richey Manic. I also
understand that NME is always tongue in cheek and a music tabloid. When they stop trying to be celebrity journalists and return to informing us all about the important things in the music industry maybe all this tired forum slaging of their publication will end. Until then it's light entertainment and what they say passes me by mostly.

Causing offence is cool if it's because the things you say are ahead of their time, or because they raise unpleasant truths that people would rather ignore, causing offence for the sake of causing offence is the last resort of no-ideas, hollow brained cokehead shitheads, like Crispian Mills, like Paul Moody, like Hirst and Emin and like Prince Harry.

It's also about context, there's something entertaining and even a little endearing about, say Eminem fashioning himself into a character so obnoxious, vile, arrogant, narcicistic and self-destructive that it's those who try to reason with him who end up looking ridiculous, but there's no joy in watching a congenitally inbred, pig-thick member of a crumbling dynasty - who probably would be a Nazi or similar given the chance - strutting round in cheap shock tactic, look at fucking me mummy, aren't I a badboy Billy Idol for the 21st Century, tiresome brattish facny dress clobber.

Agreed, especially with the bit about those no-talent fuckstains Hirst and Emin.

The most disturbing thing about the whole story is that the party's theme was "colonial and native". I thought this was the 21st century, not the 19th. I seriously wasn't fully aware that there was a section of British youth that think that's normal.
